review 1: If you are the type of person who doesn't like authors reworking biblical stories, you won't enjoy this book. The action parts of this story are standard fair and didn't really get my blood pumping. I did enjoy some of the "what ifs" talked about in this book and some historical ...

review 1: I have read a lot of James Rollins books. I believe that his earlier books began to take shape to follow the master Mr. Cussler. His later books are getting better. I believe that blood line is getting better and his rival of characters he has sidelined in the past may bring him ...

review 1: Really good. I read this one, realizing that it is #2 of what I believe is a trilogy, but there was enough explanation to keep me from feeling lost. Any time you can root for a "villain", and in this case, two villains, yet still root for the good guys equally, it's a good read a...

review 1: I enjoy reading most of what James Rollins publishes, but this was not one of my favorites. I liked it, and I finished it because I wanted to find out what happened...but parts of it were clunky. The bad guy was cliche and reminded me too much of the bad guy from Amazonia. The...

review 1: I find these books and stories written by James Rollins and Rebecca Cantrell fascinating. While obviously fiction, it puts a modern, fresh spin on history and historical mythology that engages my mind and makes me think of things that happened in the past in a whole new way. It k...

review 1: Prequel to Sigma Force 7: The Devil's Colony. Worthwhile, short read that's well-paced, and as usual, full of excitement as well as a well-crafted mesh of history, ancient architecture, and culture in a story whose intrigue also includes elements of modern day technology and conc...

review 1: Like many readers, I was disappointed in the two-year wait for this latest installment in the Sigma Force series. Now, I'm thinking perhaps he should take two years on all the novels--I don't know if it was the extra time, but something has paid off huge dividends.As always, summ...

review 1: Jake Ransom is a suspenseful book that has twists and betrayal at every turn. This is a riproaring adventure, especially for those who have read the previous book, ''Jake Ransom and the Skull King's Shadow''. There is heartbreak, humor, and adventure in every page of this book. I...

review 1: Since I've read The Blood Gospel, I was a bit miffed at the way this short left me hanging, wishing for more. Even though it precedes The Blood Gospel, it didn't offer anything that added to the first book. I'm not sure what the point of this story was - other than to introduce...

review 1: Another short story from James Rollins this time with Seichan a former member of the Guild and a future member of Sigma. Again very, very short but I still really enjoyed it, though I'd prefer it a litter bit longer, so there'd be more space for each character and for details. Fo...

review 1: I didn't enjoy this as much as the first one, but I think that may have been because I had just been reading several books from Game of Thrones. It is probably difficult for a young adult novel to live up to that level of action and excitement. My 10 year old son did thoroughly...

review 1: So, I have a few things to say about this book.When I started this, throughout the first chapter, I felt like this was going to be kind of the same book like The Jaguar Stones books. But it turned out to be completely, completely different.At first it really bothered me that ther...
